Sorry most of the ships made by Coplann,look over again.

you mean this here:

For those who might want it is a small table of ship styles:
S0 - Terran Ship Style
S1 - Torian Ship Style
S2 - Yor Ship Style
S3 - Drengin Ship Style
S4 - Altarian Ship Style
S5 - Dread Lord Ship Style

Rename your model to S#_Shipmodel.x - Whitestar.x would be renamed to S99_Whitestar.x
S99_ is the designation to use if you want the ship to be available no matter the race you play.
And don't forget the underscore between the ship number and the model name.
Then you can copy the desired class of ship from the GC2Types.xml file, paste it at the end of the file before the last GC2 tag, and modify the ship name (if there is already a LargeHull0, LargeHull1, LargeHull2 - then change it to LargeHull3, and so on), description, model and thumbnail to match your new model.
Only use the base names of the ship model and thumbnail - no S99_ or ,x or ,png.
It should be clear how it is done once you look at the entry in the GC2Types.xml file.
The next time you start a game it should be listed with whatever class ship you associated it with, as long as you have the required techs.

Darn it the lines didnt show in my last post. the two lines should be one that says shipstyle>3< and the next one that has modulestyle>2<

??? actually, none were made by the Vorlons (yet) except for the White Star which is a Minbari/Vorlon tech hybrid. ^^

another way to add ships to the game is this (example for the Aurora Starfury, it will come along with the updated Aurora as soon as Stardock approved it):

#1 rename your ship to SX_Shipname.X (where SX = S0,S1,S2 or... S6), for example S0_Aurora.X to add it as a human ship
#2 copy the X File and the textures (dont rename those) into your gfx/models folder
#3 add the following to your GC2Types.XML:


[Hull Name="Aurora"]
[DisplayName]Aurora[/DisplayName]
[Description]The Earth Force standard Aurora Starfury.[/Description]
[Cost]35[/Cost]
[Size]16[/Size]
[SensorRange]2[/SensorRange]
[HP]6[/HP]
[Model]Aurora[/Model]
[Thumbnail]Aurora[/Thumbnail]
[Speed]1[/Speed]
[Category]Tiny[/Category]
[Logistics]2[/Logistics]
[/Hull]

note that the [ ] are actually XML/HTML Tags (the forum omits them)

You can modify the values there as you like for more hit points or space for equipment etc.

add something like this: [Tech_Requirement]Medium Scale Building[/Tech_Requirement]
for example if you want the hull to be available after you researched Medium Scale Buildings.

note that the Model-Tag refers to the name of your X-File without the SX_ in front
